I having increasing problems with Access 2013 crashing.  Even after compacting and repairing the database it crashes all of the time - now it's crashing whenever I try to do a "save as" or when I try to exit.  It's been unstable since I started using it but it seems to be getting worse, and it happens on multiple machines. Anyone have an idea why it's constantly crashing?

    Yes, it did crash on that form and any form that uses that section of code but only when running in Access 2013, runs fine in Access 2010.

    Scott,

    It is definitely that section of code that is causing the problem.  What exactly are you trying to do?  Might have to rethink that section of code because it does not work consistently.

    I also noticed your use of Reserved Words... Type and Reference, never a good idea.

    HOWEVER, it runs perfectly in Access 2010, so it's definitely an Access 2013 issue and I truely don't know why.

    EDIT: Okay, it's late and I have a meeting tomorrow.  So, I'll play with this some more tomorrow during breaks!

    Nevermind I found the form frmPoolFenceChecklist

    Interesting.  I'm running a 64 bit system on  Windows 8.1

    From your last comment did it crash on that form?
